Research
Her research activity is related to the analysis and processing of satellite remote sensing data and the development of scientific and technical applications and algorithms. She is specialized in hydrological remote sensing including soil moisture estimation and water level retrievals using satellite altimeter. Her PhD activity was about water resources estimation in continental surfaces using microwave remote sensing. Currently, in CTTC, she is involved in the researches about the measurement and monitoring of deformations using SAR interferometry techniques (InSAR). Her main research interests are in SAR and SAR interferometry, land deformation, hydrology, etc.
